|
|
How do I outline a letter or a number? For example, I have a black, arial font, 200 pt number 5. I would like to put a thin outline of another color, say red, around it. I have tried making a larger number 5 on a different layer and placing it under the smaller number but that gives me more of a drop shadow effect which is not what I am looking for.
Here is an example:
Thanks. |

Problem with that technique is that it doesnt work for Photoshop CS2. CS2 doesnt allow selecting of layers via CTRL+Click, I dont know if they allow it at all. _________________ Tsuyamono(Down) :: DeviantArt |
